Abstract

Ipomoea carnea commonly known as beshram or pink morning glory have several bioactive compounds of therapeutic needs as indicated through several peaks obtained and represented through chromatogram. Aim and objectives: Objective of this study is to investigate the presence of bioactive compounds (Phytochemical profiling) along with quantification of quercetin and gallic acid. Methods: HPTLC analysis of Ipomoea carnea test samples extracted from n-hexane (sample 1) and hydro-alcohol (1:1, v/v) (sample 2) extract reveals information for the presence or absence of Quercetin and gallic acid. The phytochemical profile of plants was determined and presented in the figures and tables showed the total number of peaks, peak height, peak area and Rf values. Result: CAMAG HPTLC analysis reveals the absence of quercetin and gallic acid in plant samples. Importance of this research is to set the further research of other flavonoids to set the flavanoidal actions of I. carnea.
